The sleeve is the "new" thing right now but it's new, and thats that! Look at how many people have lost TONS of weight, over 100 pounds being banded! The sleeve must cost more money thats prob why they want you to do that haha! Stick with having the band, the surgery was the easiest part! You can def do it!! If you ever have any questions let me know! Im still learning myself obviously but things are definetly changing and sooner then I thought

Hey cole! Im actually doing GREAT! Had my staples out yesterday and feel awesome. Port site a little sore still, but thats nothing! I got the ok yesterday to start to workout and move to mushies, so im actually eating some baby food right now I still haven't gotten a fill because im only 2 weeks post op. Have to go back in two weeks to double check to make sure all is good and then I think at that appointment they will tell me to move onto solid food! Then two weeks after that I get my first fill! Surgery wasnt bad AT ALL. The most pain I had was from the gas not the incisions whatsoever. Do you have a date yet?!?!?!?!?

hey purdy ladyyyy!!!!

Thank you!!!! I will keep you posted on how I'm doing

Thanks so much jac!! Im in the zone for sure! Day 13 and only 1 more full day to go of my liquids before the band! Im super excited. I cant wait to get started on this new journey in my life Thank you for your support it really does mean a lot! I will let you know how I make out!!

Shelly you are very sweet and kind! Thank you so much for your kind words I hope that you get better!! Pneumonia STINKS I'm so happy that you are going to have your surgery though!! I cant wait for thursday to come, it seems so close but yet so far away! I'm on day 12 of liquids and STARVING but I made it this far! First 2 days are the HARDEST!
